How Can You Help?
Nebraskans can help their friends and neighbors suffering from kidney disease or waiting for a life-saving transplant by supporting the Nebraska Kidney Association. That support can take the form of participation in special events, volunteer work, a monetary gift or including the NKA in a planned giving program.
